Description
La présente invention se rapporte à un moto-réducteur muni d'un couvercle de fermeture de carter du moto réducteur, notamment moto-réducteur d'essuyage.The present invention relates to a gear motor provided with a cover for closing the gear motor housing, in particular wiper gear motor.
Comme déjà connu, un moto-réducteur est constitué d'un moteur électrique dont l'arbre du rotor se prolonge en dehors du moteur électrique par une vis sans fin pénétrant dans un carter creux fermé par un couvercle.As already known, a gear motor consists of an electric motor, the rotor shaft of which extends outside the electric motor by a worm screw penetrating into a hollow casing closed by a cover.
Ce carter comporte, dans son volume creux, un système de réduction constitué d'une roue dentée entraînée en rotation par la vis sans fin et entraînant par l'intermédiaire d'un axe excentré porté par ladite roue de manière libre en rotation et en translation axiale, un système bielle-manivelle relié de manière fixe audit axe, ledit système permettant de transformer le mouvement circulairement continu de cette roue en un mouvement de rotation alternatif à un arbre de sortie traversant le fond du carter et entrai- nant un dispositif d'essuyage.This casing comprises, in its hollow volume, a reduction system consisting of a toothed wheel driven in rotation by the endless screw and driving by means of an eccentric pin carried by said wheel freely in rotation and in translation axial, a connecting rod-crank system fixedly connected to said axis, said system making it possible to transform the circular continuous movement of this wheel into an alternating rotational movement with an output shaft passing through the bottom of the casing and driving a device for wiping.
Un tel moto-réducteur doit pouvoir transmettre des efforts très importants et il est nécessaire d'immobiliser en translation axiale l'axe excentré porté par la roue en le calant de manière à ce que celui-ci ne puisse pas coulisser axialement sous l'effort transmis par la roue, en venant heurter le couvercle et en générant des bruits intempestifs et, de par la liaison rigide avec le système bielle-manivelle, entraîner ce système et l'arbre de sortie dans un déplacement également axial risquant de faire heurter et frotter le système bielle-manivelle sur le couvercle en créant des bruits de chocs ou des crissements.Such a gear motor must be able to transmit very large forces and it is necessary to immobilize in axial translation the eccentric axis carried by the wheel by wedging it so that it cannot slide axially under the force transmitted by the wheel, by striking the cover and generating nuisance noise and, by the rigid connection with the connecting rod-crank system, driving this system and the output shaft in an equally axial movement likely to strike and rub the connecting rod-crank system on the cover creating shock noises or screeching.
Il a déjà été proposé, par exemple dans DE-A-3 247 421, d'utiliser le couvercle en tant que surface de butée de l'extrémité supérieure de l'axe excentré porté par la roue.It has already been proposed, for example in DE-A-3 247 421, to use the cover as a stop surface for the upper end of the eccentric axis carried by the wheel.
A cet effet, l'extrémité supérieure dudit axe est munie d'un moyen de calage constitué d'un capuchon plastique s'appuyant sur la surface interne du couvercle et la surface de la barre de transmission du système bielle-manivelle en regard du couvercle.For this purpose, the upper end of said axis is provided with a wedging means consisting of a plastic cap resting on the internal surface of the cover and the surface of the transmission rod of the connecting rod-crank system facing the cover. .
La matière du capuchon est une matière plastique à faible coefficient de frottement de sorte que celui-ci puisse s'appuyer avec un frottement très faible sur le couvercle, sans provoquer d'élévation notable de la température tout en ne gênant pas la rotation dudit axe dans le logement prévu à cet effet dans la roue et son déplacement circulaire généré par ladite roue.The material of the cap is a plastic material with a low coefficient of friction so that it can bear with very low friction on the cover, without causing a significant rise in temperature while not interfering with the rotation of said axis. in the housing provided for this purpose in the wheel and its circular displacement generated by said wheel.
Mais cette disposition, si elle est efficace, est relativement coûteuse en frais de montage et génère quand même un frottement non négligeable.But this arrangement, if it is effective, is relatively costly in assembly costs and still generates significant friction.
En effet, lors des opérations de montage, le capuchon est une pièce de petite taille qui n'est pas facile à loger sur l'extrémité de l'axe excentré et ce capuchon peut quitter l'extrémité de cet axe lors de manipulations dans le processus de montage.Indeed, during assembly operations, the cap is a small piece which is not easy to accommodate on the end of the eccentric pin and this cap can leave the end of this axis when handling in the assembly process.
En outre, le capuchon est prisonnier entre la face interne du couvercle et la face de la barre de transmission en regard de ce couvercle, ce qui, compte tenu des tolérances de fabrication, peut engendrer un effort de serrage axial assez grand sur ledit capuchon et entraîner des efforts de freinage par frottement au niveau des surfaces de contact avec ce capuchon pouvant gêner le bon fonctionnement de l'ensemble.In addition, the cap is trapped between the internal face of the cover and the face of the transmission bar opposite this cover, which, taking into account manufacturing tolerances, can generate a fairly large axial clamping force on said cap and cause frictional braking forces at the contact surfaces with this cap which can hinder the proper functioning of the assembly.
De plus, il est nécessaire de disposer d'une multiplicité de tailles de capuchon en relation avec chaque type de moto-réducteur.In addition, it is necessary to have a multiplicity of cap sizes in relation to each type of gear motor.
Selon la présente invention, un moto-réducteur muni d'un couvercle de fermeture d'un carter creux du moto-réducteur, notamment moto-réducteur d'essuyage, comportant, dans le volume creux dudit carter, une roue dentée mobile en rotation autour d'un axe et portant de manière libre en rotation et en translation axiale un axe calé axialement et excentré par rapport à l'axe de ladite roue qui entraînant un système bielle-manivelle permettant d'engendrer, à partir du mouvement de rotation continue de ladite roue, un mouvement de rotation alternatif à un arbre de sortie, est caractérisé en ce que le couvercle présente sur sa face interne, dirigée vers le carter, au moins une surépaisseur plane de glissement en matériau à faible coefficient de frottement.According to the present invention, a gear motor provided with a cover for closing a hollow casing of the gear motor, in particular wiping gear motor, comprising, in the hollow volume of said housing, a toothed wheel movable in rotation around of an axis and carrying freely in rotation and in axial translation an axis axially wedged and eccentric relative to the axis of said wheel which driving a rod-crank system making it possible to generate, from the continuous rotation movement of said wheel, a rotation movement alternating with an output shaft, is characterized in that the cover has on its internal face, directed towards the casing, at least one planar excess thickness for sliding in a material with a low coefficient of friction.
Ainsi, l'axe qui est monté, à son extrémité inférieure dans un logement de la roue dentée est maintenu en translation axiale à sa surface supérieure par simple contact avec la surépaisseur de frottement tout en évitant de prévoir une pièce supplémentaire sur celui-ci.Thus, the axis which is mounted, at its lower end in a housing of the toothed wheel is maintained in axial translation at its upper surface by simple contact with the additional friction while avoiding to provide an additional part thereon.
Selon une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la surépaisseur est prévue sur tout le cheminement circulaire de l'axe autour de l'axe de la roue.According to another characteristic of the invention, the additional thickness is provided over the entire circular path of the axis around the axis of the wheel.
Grâce à cette disposition, l'axe est maintenu en translation axiale surtout le chemin circulaire qu'il parcourt.Thanks to this arrangement, the axis is kept in axial translation especially the circular path which it traverses.

En se référant aux figures 1 et 2, un carter 1 d'un moto-réducteur, notamment pour l'entraînement d'un dispositif d'essuyage, contient un système de réduction constitué d'une roue dentée 2 montée libre en rotation sur un arbre 3 porté par le fond 4 de ce carter et entraînée en rotation par une vis sans fin 5 issue du rotor d'un moteur électrique (non représenté).Referring to Figures 1 and 2, a housing 1 of a gear motor, in particular for driving a wiping device, contains a reduction system consisting of a
La roue 2 porte un axe 6 sensiblement parallèle à l'arbre 3 et disposé de manière excentrée par rapport audit arbre en étant monté libre en rotation et en translation axiale dans un logement 7 à fond fermé 8 que présente ladite roue 2.The
L'axe 6 est relié de manière fixe, telle que par sertissage, à un système bielle-manivelle 9 permettant de transformer le mouvement de rotation continue de la roue 2 en un mouvement de rotation alternatif à un arbre de sortie 10 logé dans un fût 11 que présente le fond dudit carter en reposant sur un coussinet antifriction 12.The
Le système bielle-manivelle 9 présente un bras 13, formant bielle, relié de manière fixe à l'une 14 de ses extrémités avec l'axe 6 en laissant dépasser, au-delà de sa face externe 15, un tronçon d'extrémité 16 d'axe 6 et présente à son autre extrémité un secteur denté 17 engrenant avec un autre secteur denté 18 lié de manière fixe à l'arbre de sortie 10 en formant une manivelle, deux flasques 19, 20 étant disposés de part et d'autre des faces longitudinales des secteurs dentés 16 et 19 de manière à relier rigidement le bras 13 à l'arbre 10, d'une part par l'intermédiaire d'une tige 21 libre en rotation disposée à l'une des extrémités des flasques et traversant l'épaisseur du bras et, d'autre part, parune ouverture 22 prévue l'autre extrémité desdits flasques qui vient, pour le flasque 20, se disposer entre la face inférieure du secteur denté 18 et la face d'appui 23 que présente le fond du carter en étant engagé le long de l'arbre de sortie 10 et, pour le flasque 19, entourer l'extrémité supérieure 24 de l'arbre de sortie 10 en laissant dépasser une portion 25 au-delà de la face externe 26 du flasque 19.The rod-crank system 9 has an
En pratique la surface supérieure terminale 27 du tronçon 16 est située sensiblement sur le même plan que la surface externe 26 du flasque 19 et la surface supérieure terminale 28 de la portion 25 est située sur un plan plus haut en considérant la figure 1.In practice, the
Bien entendu et cela sans sortir du cadre de l'invention le système bielle-manivelle peut être un système classique à deux tringles articulées l'une avec l'autre par l'intermédiaire d'un axe de rotation.Of course, without departing from the scope of the invention, the connecting rod-crank system can be a conventional system with two rods hinged to one another by means of an axis of rotation.
Comme mieux visible sur la figure 1, le carter 1 est fermé à sa partie supérieure par un couvercle 29 généralement réalisé à partir d'une feuille métallique de faible épaisseur et reliée au bord dudit carter par tous moyens connus tels que serrage parvis ou rivetage.As best seen in Figure 1, the housing 1 is closed at its upper part by a
Ce couvercle présente, sur sa face interne dirigée vers le volume creux du carter 1, une surépaisseur 30 constituée, dans l'exemple représenté, par une plaquette plane 31 de faible coefficient de frottement rapportée de manière fixe sur ledit couvercle.This cover has, on its internal face directed towards the hollow volume of the casing 1, an
En relation avec la figure 2, la plaquette 31 présente une forme périphérique circulaire dont le rayon R est au moins égal au rayon r considéré entre l'axe de rotation 32 de la roue 2 et la périphérie de l'axe 6 la plus proche du bord externe de la roue 2, le rayon R correspondant ainsi au déplacement circulaire de l'axe 6 autour de l'axe 32 sous l'impulsion de la roue 2, ladite plaquette ainsi conformée étant placée coaxialement avec l'axe 32.In relation to FIG. 2, the
Ainsi lors du montage et du vissage du couvercle 19 sur le bord du carter 1, il est prévu que la face externe 33 dirigée vers le carter 1 de la surépaisseur 30, ici constituée par la plaquette 31, soit d'une épaisseur telle que cette surépaisseur vienne porter à glissement sur la surface supérieure terminale 27 de l'axe 6 en immobilisant en translation axiale l'axe 6 entre ladite face externe de la plaquette et le fond 8 du logement 7.Thus during assembly and screwing of the
Grâce à la composition et à la forme circulaire de la plaquette 31, la surface terminale 27 peut glisser facilement tout au long du mouvement circulaire de l'axe 6 autour de l'axe 32 alors que l'axe 6 est calé en direction axiale.Thanks to the composition and the circular shape of the
Avantageusement, il peut être prévu que la surface terminale 27 soit une surface bombée en direction du couvercle, en présentant par exemple une surface hémisphérique permettant ainsi un contact ponctuel entre cette surface et la surface de la plaquette 31 en regard.Advantageously, provision may be made for the
En se référant en plus à la figure 2, le couvercle 29 porte également sur sa face interne, de manière fixe, une deuxième surépaisseur 34 formée par une rondelle évidée 35 présentant un alésage 36 de diamètre supérieur à celui du diamètre de la portion 25 précédemment définie et un diamètre extérieur permettant de recouvrir au moins partiellement l'extrémité du flasque 19 présent au niveau de l'arbre de sortie 10 en étant disposé coaxialement avec la portion 25 de l'arbre de sortie 10.Referring in addition to FIG. 2, the
De ce fait, lors de la fermeture du carter 1 par le couvercle 29, la rondelle 35 vient entourer la portion 25 en prenant appui par sa face dirigée vers le carter sur la face externe 26 du flasque 19 et plus particulièrement au niveau de la surface considérée autour de la portion 25.Therefore, when the casing 1 is closed by the
Bien entendu, il est prévu que la surface terminale supérieure 28 de la portion 25 soit disposée de telle manière que, après disposition du couvercle, cette surface terminale se trouve à distance de la face interne du couvercle celle dirigée vers le carter, de façon à éviter un contact entre les deux surfaces.Of course, provision is made for the upper end surface 28 of the
Ainsi, non seulement l'arbre de sortie 10 est immobilisé en translation axiale entre la face d'appui 23 et la face de la rondelle 35 dirigée vers le carter, mais aussi tous mouvements radiaux de cette portion d'arbre, comprise dans le carter c'est-à-dire celle située au-delà du palier 12, par exemple sous l'action des efforts de transmission du système bielle-manivelle 9, sont empêchés par la disposition de la portion 25 dans l'alésage 36 de la rondelle 35 servant dans ce cas de palier radial.Thus, not only the
En pratique, et comme cela est visible sur les figures 3 et 4, la plaquette 31 et la rondelle 35 sont reliées entre elles par un bras radial 37 permettant ainsi de créer une plaque monobloc 38, pouvant être par exemple moulée, en permettant de réaliser la plaquette 31, la rondelle 35 et le bras 37 sous la forme d'une seule et unique pièce.In practice, and as can be seen in FIGS. 3 and 4, the
Comme visible sur la figure 3, le bras 37 présente un bord haut sensiblement horizontal 39 qui relie la plaquette 31 et la rondelle 35 sensiblement au niveau de leurs parties hautes en considérant cette figure et un bord bas incliné 40 reliant la partie basse de la rondelle évidée 35 à la partie sensiblement médiane de la plaquette 31 de manière à autoriser le débattement alternatif circulaire de la tige 21 autour de l'axe longitudinal passant par l'arbre de sortie 10 comme cela est représenté sur la figure 2 par le trait mixte interrompu 41.As visible in FIG. 3, the
De préférence, l'épaisseur du bras 37 est moindre que celle de la plaquette 31 et de la rondelle 35 et présente des nervures de raidissement 42.Preferably, the thickness of the
Bien entendu, la plaque 38 est également disposée de manière fixe sur le couvercle par tous moyens appropriés tels que collage ou autres mais en pratique la plaque 38 présente d'une part, sur la plaquette 31, trois picots de fixation 43 régulièrement répartis circonférentiellement et situés sur un rayon plus petit que le rayon R de la plaquette 31 en étant élaborés de manière monobloc avec ladite plaquette et d'autre part, à partir de la rondelle 35, deux autres picots de fixation 44 prévus à partir de deux oreilles 45 diamè- tralement opposées et prévus en saillie dans le même plan longitudinal et à partir du bord périphérique de ladite rondelle.Of course, the plate 38 is also fixedly disposed on the cover by any suitable means such as gluing or the like, but in practice the plate 38 has on the one hand, on the
Les picots 43, 44 sont adaptées à pénétrer dans des ouvertures correspondantes 46, 47 prévues à travers le couvercle 29 (figures 5 et 6), les ouvertures 46 et 47, ici des alésages, correspondent sensiblement en dimension et en disposition aux dimensions et à la disposition des picots 43, 44 qui sont de dimension axiale supérieure à l'épaisseur du couvercle 29 de manière à permettre la fixation par rivetage à chaud, par exemple, des extrémités des picots dépassant du couvercle.The
Dans le cas où le couvercle 29 est réalisé en matière plastique, il est prévu que cette matière soit une matière à faible coefficient de frottement de manière à élaborer conjointement avec le couvercle 29, les surépaisseurs 30 et 34 en réalisant simultanément, en une seule pièce et dans la même matière, le couvercle 29, la plaquette 31 et la rondelle 35 ou le couvercle 29 et la plaque 38.In the case where the
Il va de soi que de nombreuses variantes peuvent être introduites, notamment par substitution de moyens techniquement équivalents, sans pour autant sortir du cadre de l'invention.It goes without saying that numerous variants can be introduced, in particular by substitution of technically equivalent means, without however departing from the scope of the invention.
